## Caption

The author George Saunders has a reputation for goodness. His 2013 convocation speech at Syracuse University, in which he extolled the importance of being kind, went viral and was repackaged as a best-selling book. On “The Interview,” Saunders joined David Marchese to talk about where he sees a loss of human connection, what it’s like to be thought of as a kindness expert, his latest work and some of life’s deeper questions.
